Looks dry out, though it's still too dark to discern any details. Not excessively cold, though

The joy of having the world's worst laptop at clientco is that everything takes hours.
Got in 45 minutes ago and I have just got all the applications I need to do something quickly..
Would have taken 2 minutes at home on my proper machine.Last edited by eek; 15 November 2016, 08:34.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

Has always cracked me up, you spend £600 PD or so on a resource, you then fix them up with a £50 laptopOriginally posted by eek View PostThe joy of having the world's worst laptop at clientco is that everything takes hours.

ClientCo reconfigured their network cabling in the comms room last night. This has left my machine without a network connection
As I do all my work on a VM, I can't even access my code. And the people who are supposed to fix it aren't sure how until they've studied what their colleagues did last night.
Still invoicing
